ting is owned/run by tucows, who are now also doing a 1Gb (GPON?) residential single home FTTH project... http://www.fiercetelecom.com/europe/tags/tucows On Wed, Apr 20, 2016 at 2:18 PM, Josh Reynolds <josh@kyneticwifi.com> wrote:
Ting's support is the BEST support I've ever had in the IT industry. I event ended up in a long discussion with one of the reps about custom roms :P
*shrugs* Seems to work here, though if Ting uses T-Mo and Sprint, I suppose Ting's more likely to have a good signal.
I don't expect much support on a $6 mobile wireless service.

I had horrible experience when I tried to use Freedom POP many years ago.
Their customer service is awful and completely uncooperative. Their equipment did not work well in my environment at all.
I would not wish them on my worst enemy.

I'd look at FreedomPOP's Netgear 341U. $20 - $50 NRC, single digit MRC for low usage.

A while ago some people mentioned that some US carriers have basic internet plans for backup access to their equipment. A few questions: 1) Do they give you a public IP per connection or do you tunnel back to a central location and then connect via the tunnel? 2) Which carriers offer this and what kind of devices do you use to connect? Is it simply a GSM card on a "MyFi" like device? We have lots of Pi's out there that we want backup access to. 3) Can you send off list contacts and pricing that you have gotten in
